Sacramento-based theater company Capital Stage continues to celebrate its 10th anniversary in style with their current production of Anna Karenina. British playwright Helen Edmundson’s work has been widely staged—next year Keira Knightley will make her Broadway debut in the playwright’s adaptation of Emile Zola’s Thérèse Raquin for New York’s Roundabout Theatre Company—and she nabbed a Time Out magazine Award for Outstanding Theatre Event for this adaptation of Leo Tolstoy’s seminal novel. Capital Stage’s production of Anna Karenina sees Lenne Klingaman in the title role of a beautiful and sought-after young woman who leads an empty life until she enters in a destructive and scandalous affair with a notorious count. Sounds hot. Capital Stage’s founding artistic director Stephanie Gularte directs this classic tale. The play runs evening performances Wednesday through Saturday until Nov. 23, with 2 p.m. matinees on Saturday and Sunday. You can order your tickets at Capstage.org.
